This is a purely concept build project using a spare equipment rack as the frame. The concept is to mount the bed to the floor of the frme, using a Y Axis actuator of 500 mm. The X Axis gantry of 450 mm will rise the Z axis height of approximately 1800 mm. Controller will most likely be Duet WiFi. Initial concept is threaded lead screws vs belts using Nema23 motors.
